Stolen Tears

A bad case of the
just don’t cares.

Waiting.
At the top of the stairs.

For the clock to tick.
Stiff as a brick.

Trying not to be sick.
On the new carpet.


Good things are possible.
Just not here.

Oh dear.
Stolen tears.

Body shakes.
Feel the fears.

Rise up inside.
Nowhere to hide.


Access denied.
Too much pride.

To take the easy way.
Not today.

Make it hard.
And disregard.

The righteous path.
Feel the wrath.
